Like Otis said, You can already pledge now folks, even tho the official Marathon starts tomorrow. Be ahead of the crowd! Scroll to the bottom of this page for the absolutely spectacular DJ-compiled CDs 'n' stuff:

That sounds delicious, spacebrother. On my first visit to Montreal I was terrified to speak to anyone for the first 8 hours and then realized I was going to starve to death if I was afraid to order food in English :) I didn't have any problems. They say "Bonjour" I say "Hi," and they switch to English readily.

@grantbob - Thanks for the radio show link you sent over. Will be checking out when I catch up on streams/listens this weekend. My weekends are usually for catching up on Sheena and FMU shows I missed due to work during the week.

Speaking of Bob Chance, re: Moribund Music, etc, I SWEAR I once ran across that Gary Brisalera (sic) track Balderdash online and now I cannot. Otis, Don-O, do you know what I am talking about? Am I crazy?

The Bandcamp feed is great because you can follow friends and like-minded individuals, and then what they buy shows up in your feed. If you follow the link from the other person and buy something, they get a cute email (if you've allowed that)

One negative about Bandcamp, and it's a significant one: search is pretty janky. I find it easier at times to just put what I'm looking for plus "bandcamp" in a regular search engine and follow a link from there.

Kat, i actually wrote to Bandcamp a few years re that very issue. Like say you want "Death Metal" + "bagpipes". There's no way to do a more basic search then just, say, "Death metal." Searching can takes ages and yes it can be a bit frustrating. They said 'yeah, that's a great idea, maybe we'll do something like that.' Still waiting...But I do love Bandcamp, have used em for years.
